I think you are all right.. it was running the script properly from command line as it understood the Autosys command but from Apache server it was not. So I added an additional sourcing of Autosys from my wrapper CGI and it worked. thanks so much for your replies. I am not a perl expert at all.. Just learning.. so couldnt understand things clearly. thanks again for all the helpp.

I have problem with my CGI perl script. Below is the code i have post the table tag closure. Before this table, ofcourse I have the BODY tag still open. 

# Autosys command
@job_run = `autorep -J my_job_name -w`;

print "<PRE><FONT SIZE=3>\n";
foreach $job_line (@job_run) {
   print "'$job_line'"; }

print "</FONT></PRE>\n";
